'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.3 M2 was released.
*YP 4.0.19 is ready for release.
*YP 3.1.27 was rebuilt after a toolchain tests fix and is in QA
*YP 5.1 M1 is ready for release.
*YP 4.0.12 rc1 was built but will need to be rebuilt due to an autobuilder failure due to certificate expiration.
*Patch status tags are now checked for by default. Layers which don't wish this can disable the error by removing patch-status from ERROR_QA.
*The merged systemd upgrade has destablised the autobuilder. We don’t want to revert the upgrade but the regressions are causing multiple test failures and this along with other issues in multiple patch series means patch merging is effectively stalled.
*Fedora 40 support should be almost complete. GCC 14 is the gift that keeps on giving, the last issue I'm aware of is in 'expect' and there are now two competing patches for that.
*There are two issues blocking the 6.4 kernel upgrade, one is qemuarm drm boot errors and the second is broken networking for systemd images under qemu.
*Some larger patches are on the list and help reviewing these would be appreciated:
*Support for a new recipe sanity testing task (do_recipe_qa) was merged and there is a hope/plan to move more “processing” operations over to this task to improve general parsing time.
**Adding SPDX 3.0 from Joshua
*CVE metrics are worrying with significant numbers of open CVEs against master, many of them kernel related. The 6.4 upgrade should help but that is blocked. Mickledore is also badly affected with a record high count. https://autobuilder.yocto.io/pub/non-release/patchmetrics/
**Improved CVE tooling from Marta
**bitbake-setup and configuration fragments from Alexander
*We had some fixes for the install-buildtools script which showed a lack of automated testing for it. Adding some would be an interesting first contribution if anyone is interested.
*There is an open letter the project has created related to the CVE/NVD situation, more information is available here: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/1990
**Please consider signing this to show support for those changes.
**Signatures from small businesses/consultancies are as welcome as those from larger organizations as we want to demonstrate the breadth of the need for these changes.
*We continue to have trouble tracking down the rust reproducibility problem in rustdoc.
*Through post release upgrading our patch count reduced again and is now the lowest level since July 2008!

*As people are likely aware, the project has a number of components which are either unmaintained, or have people with little to no time trying to keep them alive. These components include: patchtest, layerindex, devtool, toaster, wic, oeqa, autobuilder, CROPs containers, pseudo and more. Many have open bugs. Help is welcome in trying to better look after these components!
